Bertram residents interested in running for mayor have until 5 p.m. March 1 to file for the May 1 election.
The Bertram City Council called for the election to fill the unexpired mayor term during a Feb. 16 special meeting. The move became necessary after Mayor Adam Warden resigned last week. His term originally expired May 2022.
With this move, the May 1 ballot will have three full-term council seats on it as well as the unexpired mayor spot. The filing date for the three council seats was Feb. 12.
